― Paul J. Meyer
Lately, I
have been hearing more about "connectors" in the business arena --
those people who know how to network and connect others. Some people even make a living from it. I have a friend whom I met through a
colleague in another city. This friend is
an amazing connector, but she does it from the heart and with a kindness that is
both generous and uncommon. Yes, she has
made connections for me that have resulted in business opportunities. But she also has gone out of her way to help
me with personal matters and has been generous with her advice. More than a year ago, she came up with an
idea to schedule monthly check-in calls to make sure we stayed in touch. During those calls, we discuss subjects
ranging from our children to our work. Sometimes,
specific things come out of our calls; always, we feel better from having
connected and bounced ideas or situations off each other. As she e-mailed today about setting up our
calls for 2014, I marveled at her kindness and counted it among my blessings.
